<p>The article is dedicated to the problem of arterial hypertension, including hypertensive crisis prevention in aircraft enterprises’ workers of vibroacoustic professions. The article studies the influence of neurometabolic pharmaceutical medicine Vinpocetine on the course and prognosis of hypertension.</p><p><strong>Methods. </strong>Using the routine methods of cardiac patients’ clinical study we examined 63 persons delivered in an emergency to the inpatient units of the occupational diseases clinics with the diagnosis of "uncomplicated hypertensive crisis." The main group includes aircraft enterprises’ workers of vibroacoustic professions (n = 31) who were administered according to a therapeutic complex scheme the neurometabolic medicine Vinpocetine at a dose of 30-40 mg per day. The control group consists of the workers (n = 32) who didn’t encounter with vibroacoustic factor during their working activity and didn’t get any neurometabolic medicines according to the complex scheme of treatment.</p><p><strong>Results.</strong> The survey results have demonstrated the comparability of working groups by age, sex, main modifiable factors of cardiovascular risk, hemodynamic characteristics and cognitive abilities. Introduction of Vinpocetine into the scheme of treatment of vibroacoustic professions’ workers made it possible to achieve more significant, compared to control, decrease in blood pressure and the rates of hypertensive crises recurrence in the long-term dynamics, as well as improvement in left ventricular diastolic function of the heart and the significant increase in the scale of cognitive function data at the fifth month of observation (p&lt;0,05).</p><p><strong>Conclusions. </strong>Using Vinpocetine can significantly improve the course and prognosis of hypertension among aircraft enterprises’ workers of vibroacoustic professions<em></em></p>
